My very, very, very favorite bedding is Parachute. However, it is not under $100 dollars. I feel it’s well worth the investment, but if it’s over budget, then that’s just that. There are plenty of alternatives we’ve rounded up!

My favorite way to make a bed is also Duvet+Cover, fitted sheet, and pillows. I’m not a top sheet kinda girl. I find that the duvet+cover is also a really easy way for everyone to make their bed in the morning. And I am that kinda girl…I like to get into a made bed at night, and I find it more restful and peaceful for the kids to do the same, so we take the 3 minutes in the morning to actually make our beds, which really is just rearranging and fluffing pillows and giving the duvet a nice big shake. Voila. Peace.

And my favorite colors in bedrooms, are all the neutrals, because they are calm: Black, White, Off White, Grey, and all the shades of Brown. There are so many other rooms in the house where pops of color are so fun, in a master bedroom, I just love calm and peace – especially because that’s so hard to find anywhere else.

Feng Shui would argue this, but I love mirrors in bedrooms. I like them instead of art, over nightstands, or oversized ones over a large single piece of furniture with sculpture layered in front of it. And I like full sized mirrors, they help for getting dressed…but the master is also an adult bedroom…and well, let’s just keep it clean and say it this way – they also help for the getting undressed. Insert adult wink.

I like sparse bedrooms. Somewhere to sleep, something soft to step your feel on, a chair, chaise, or bench to sit on if you have the room, 2 nightstands for books, coffee in the morning, tea at night, and charging. And a large plant in a large pot. They add health to an environment and take up space in a beautiful way. But that’s all. If you have piles of other stuff cluttering up your bedroom, take some time, purge, and feel the peace. You’ll sleep better. I promise.

Here are a few pieces that would work well together, regardless of your bed frame style to refresh a Master:

I like very personal art. Either by a local or known artist, or collected in travels, or something super meaningful…but if you have a space that needs something and you aren’t sure exactly what you want there, minimal abstracts in easy colors always look beautiful…and some of them even take you great places in your imagination!

I love boxes on nightstands for jewelry you forget to take off before bed, or for watches b/c I take those off to sleep and then put them right back on! Boxes on nightstands can also store other fun adult things. Again, Insert Adult Wink.

These aren’t practical for everywhere, but when they are first and last thing your feet touch before bed…magic.

And…while you are not going to refresh a master bed frame in less than $100, if you are in the market for one, check-out our HOME Weekend Sales Posts. They almost always include a really well priced option. And plenty of our Pinterest Boards do as well. Now is also a good time for this b/c so many of the sellers have expanded White Sale to also include the actual bed frames and mattresses. Score for us, big time. If you have something specific you are hoping for, message us in a comment, or email us and we’ll come up with something for you!

I love a tray on the back of the toilet, to hold matches and candles, or next to the bath to hold bubbles and salt, or on the sinks counter to organize the stuff that you leave out because you use it twice a day!

I use a washcloth for my face at night. I’d roll them and store them in this basket. Or…I’d put this next to the bath with a collection of soaps. Or on the back of the toilet to hold my matches. And I know a kid that would load this up with her bath bombs next to my tub. And I’d let her.

Haha! Adult wink. That’s awesome. I miss having a big mirror in my room. No wall space in my last two apartments 🙁 Darn tiny Bay Area living vs lots of space Tucson living (I moved 2 years ago from a house to an apt……)

Mirrors make everything seem bigger. Insert Adult Wink. No joke, every time I move into a new house, my first few nights are dreams of an apartment. I just love sleeping in apartments, doing my mom chores efficiently in them. Having everything at arms reach. And living life when we all need a stretch in a big city. Just a me thing. #citygirllife. There’s something so great about ‘efficient’ life. And nothing forces that like life circumstance. How many times have I learned that life lesson? Embrace every loving minute of it, even the ones that seem hard to. xoxo
